The transmission doesn't lose power, but it quits getting power if the clutch starts slipping. Without going into detail about the physics of a clutch, the most energy is being transferred through the clutch when in the highest gear thus it is fifth gear where slipping is first noticed. My guess is its time for a new clutch.
